My two pence it's that there aren't a lot of conversation type tribes about things people want to debate. At least not that I found. Something like a conversation about your hometown, your job, your sport, whatever, that's going to get people coming back.
This is exactly what I have found. A lot of tribes act as standard news/link-aggregators. Sure, I like to read the articles once in a while, but I hardly ever comment on them. You rarely see text posts in tribes (unless of course it is text-post only). I really wish text posts would be the majority - these have always been my favourite types of communities on Reddit.

I just realised through you & /u/septimine's comments that I hadn't looked for a Dutch tribe yet. Thanks for the reminder!
Absolutely agree-there are tonnes of snaps but not much discussion and many tribes don't have any text posts-don't know why.
